August is fantastic at setting a scene. The first pages sucked me into La Société de la Nuit. I could sense the pulsing of the bass and imagine a room full of supernatural, beautiful beings wearing the finest silks, sparkles, dresses, suits. I could imagine being with Danny and his friends, laughing and having a riotously good time.
I love that Cassin’s friends tease him for gawking at Danny. No matter how long we live, people are people. That must be especially true for supernatural beings who don’t age. It leaves me pondering, if your prefrontal cortex doesn’t form before you’re turned, will it ever?
When it comes to the spicy scenes… if there’s anything August’s writing is going to do, it’s going to make me blush. 🙈🙊 I had to put my book down for a few minutes when DANNY’S DAD was suddenly in the office!
Before I knew it, I was at the last page with a cliffhanger! (Rude!) I can’t wait for Cassin and Danny’s story to be continued!
